Announcing: Alimentum Eat & Greet Tour – Nashville Edition

So, I’m pretty excited about something new I’ve been working on. My friend Paulette and I are hosting a series of culinary tours right here in Nashville! Paulette is the publisher and editor-in-chief of Alimentum Journal, a literary review all about food. She also teaches Italian-themed cooking classes here in Nashville. We both share a love of food and travel, and thought, “why not?” Nashville has a lot to offer food-wise, especially when it comes to ethnic eating. We wanted to plan something to make some of the more off-the-beaten-track places more approachable.

Our first tour will take a group of 10 to Nolensville Pike. The nuts and bolts are below, from a recent press release. Also, check out Chris Chamberlain’s awesome Bites post from the Nashville Scene.

Hope you can make it!

Who:

  • Alimentum Eat & Greet Tour: Nolensville Pike
  • Paulette Licitra, Publisher & Tour Host
  • Annakate Tefft, Public Relations & Tour Host

When: Saturday, September 17, 2011 9:30-4pm

What: Guided tour costs $95 per person, limit 10 people. Tour includes transportation (from group meeting point, TBD), lunch and tastings from an assortment of restaurants, markets and bakeries along the Nolensville Pike corridor, the latest copy of Alimentum Journal, and fun times with fellow local foodies.

Where: Tour departs at 9:30am sharp (we’ve got a lot to cover!); meeting location TBD

Why: To wake up your palate, push your culinary limits, and expose a relatively untouched world of ethnic dining in our own backyard. And honestly, why not?!

To buy tickets and learn more, please visit http://www.alimentumjournal.com/eat-and-greet or email events@alimentumjournal.com.

The next tour will be October 22 and will be to a local farm. Details to come!

Please feel free to ask questions here, or email us at the above address. Hope you can make it!

    I’m signed up and so excited to explore Nolensville Rd! Still trying to get some friends to do it with me, but even if I can’t find anyone, I know I’ll have a blast and make some new foodie friends ;-)

      I’m so glad you signed up! It’s going to be so much fun. I’ve already been to all the places but can’t wait to go back. Honestly, it’s easy to forget you’re in Middle Tennessee at some of these places…

      Yeah! You too. Always nice to see a friendly face. I think I’m going to the PRSA YP networking mixer next Tuesday night. Maybe I’ll see you there?
